“When what you are deeply passionate about, what you can be best in the world at and what drives your economic engine come together, not only does your work move toward greatness, but so does your life. For, in the end, it is impossible to have a great life unless it is a meaningful life. And it is very difficult to have a meaningful life without meaningful work. Perhaps, then, you might gain that rare tranquility that comes from knowing that you’ve had a hand in creating something of intrinsic excellence that makes a contribution. Indeed, you might even gain that deepest of all satisfactions: knowing that your short time here on this earth has been well spent, and that it mattered.”

Ducati Scrambler Italia Independent revealed

Ducati have added a special edition to the ever-expandingScramblerrange in the shape of this newItalia Independentmodel, which will be available in the UK in Spring at a fairly fruity £9377.

The new model has come about as a result of a link-up between Ducati and fashion house Italia Independent and while the mechanical parts of the bike remain largely untouched, the overall style of the bike looks substantially different to the standard Scrambler model on which it’s based. That means the 803cc, air-cooled 75bhp V-twin stays in place, but each bike gets a laser-engraved aluminium plate with the serial number, Italia Independent side panels, and copper-coloured frame and wheels.

Other unique features of the Italia Independent include the black engine with machined cylinder head fins and other details, a Termignoni exhaust with black pipes and silencer covers, low tapered handlebars, and aluminium mirrors. The bike also gets a café racer-style nose fairing and embroidered logos on the back of the bike.
